Your buyers are
already coming.
5,000+ senior financial services professionals. Group CIOs. Heads of Payments. CISOs. CFOs. Chief Risk Officers. The people who sign the decisions. The question is whether your product is in the room.
The room where your
buyers make decisions.
These are not vanity metrics. This is what exhibitors experienced in 2025 - and what scales in 2026.
Not one delegate but entire buying functions - technology, payments, risk and compliance together in the building for two days.
The majority of attendees arrive with active mandates and the authority to sign them off. This is a procurement environment, not a learning environment.
First meetings, demos, procurement introductions and follow-up conversations all happen across two days. Exhibitors consistently report their fastest pipeline progression of the year.
Built for commercial
outcomes. Not just visibility.
FinTech Connect is designed around buyer density. The attendees in the room are senior decision-makers with real procurement mandates - not passive learners. Every package is built around getting you in front of them.
Get in front of teams actively evaluating and procuring fintech and financial technology. FinTech Connect is built around buyer density, not raw visitor numbers. The people in the room are there to make decisions.
We design the experience for groups - senior teams across payments, technology, compliance and transformation attending together. Reach the whole buying committee in one room, not just one contact across months of outreach.
Position your experts on the stages where core modernisation, tokenisation, regtech and banking infrastructure are being debated. Seven specialist tracks mean your message reaches the exact right vertical, every time.
A logo on a wall is not sponsorship. Every package at FinTech Connect is built around structured access to senior decision-makers - through meeting bookings, branded stages, roundtables and high-traffic exhibition presence.
What you get that
no other event delivers.
Most events give you visibility. FinTech Connect gives you access to buyers who are actively evaluating solutions.
Banks send coordinated teams across technology, payments, risk and compliance. You meet the Group CIO, the Head of Payments and the CISO in the same two days - not over six months of separate diary requests.
Digital Assets & Tokenisation. Payments Innovation. Financial Security & Compliance. AI in Finance. Digital Transformation. Corporate Finance Innovation. FinTech Marketing & Growth. Each track is a concentrated pool of attendees with a specific function mandate.
Sponsorship packages include speaking opportunities, panel participation and content partnership. Position your team as practitioners alongside regulators and bank executives - not as vendors presenting to a half-empty room.
FinTech Connect's hosted meetings programme and Engagement Pathways mean your stand receives visitors who have been matched to your solution category before they arrive - not random foot traffic.

Your buyers are here.
In volume. With mandates.
FinTech Connect 2026 is structured to increase institutional participation. More senior decision-makers, more active buying conversations, stronger commercial ROI for every exhibitor on the floor.
Multi-stakeholder access in one visit
Bank teams attend as groups. You meet the technology lead, the payments head and the compliance director in the same two days - not across three months of separate calendar invites.
Active procurement conversations
Attendees arrive with mandates and budgets already approved. This is not a browsing audience - it's a buying audience that justified attendance to their organisation before arriving.

Built for meetings
that lead somewhere.
FinTech Connect is designed for meetings that move conversations forward. Whether you're attending or exhibiting, the environment is built to connect you with the right people - quickly, and in context.
The AI-powered app matches exhibitors to the buyers most likely to need their solution before the show opens. Your pipeline starts before you arrive.
Dedicated areas on the exhibition floor designed for focused, distraction-free conversations. First meetings happen here. Demos happen here.
First meetings, demos and procurement introductions happen across two compressed days - the fastest pipeline progression of the year for most exhibitors.
Connections that start at FinTech Connect continue well beyond the venue. It's a commercial relationship that compounds.
Introductions turn into follow-ups, follow-ups turn into pilots, and conversations continue long after the show closes. Most exhibitors report FinTech Connect as their highest-quality pipeline event of the year.
Banks attend as groups. You're not booking one meeting - you're accessing the full decision-making function across technology, payments, compliance and risk in a single two-day window.
Meeting a Head of Payments on the day their track covers cross-border settlement creates a very different conversation to a cold call two months later. Context changes everything.
Don't let your competitors
get in first.
Whether you're looking to attend or exhibit, FinTech Connect brings the industry into one place. For exhibitors, that means access to a high-value audience at the exact moment decisions are being shaped.
